This company is a FRAUD, sells counterfeit cigarettes!

You can have as many of your agents running around the internet doing damage control as you like, it will not change the facts. Your company has been exposed, so stop lying.
To anyone who doubts that the cigarettes (and other products) sold by Duty Free Depot and their affiliates are in fact counterfeit goods is advised to google the phrase "Duty Free Depot counterfeit China cigarettes" for detailed accounts.

Once again I would like to apologize for any inconvenience you have had with dutyfreedepot.com. I have been working in the company for a couple of months and my office is right next to support team's room, and I hear people calling about different issues every single day. I can promise you that the very most of the complaints are resolved instantly with no hassle. I have never heard about any customer, that paid money, and was not treated right after-sale. However, our company does hire occasional telemarketing services from East Asia, so the only explanation that I can think of is that your call was mistakenly forwarded to those agents. All of our employees are committed to supply the best service possible and it is highly unlikely that any of my agents has treated you the way you described it.
I will check your issue once again anyway.
I hope that you will consider shopping at our website sometime in the future, and if you have any questions whatsoever, you can always contact me personally via my email (marketing[at]dutyfreedepot[dot]com) and we will take it from there.
Sincerely,
Michael

Regarding your complaint

I'm Michael and I'm DutyFreeDepot's marketing and customer relations manager. I would like to clear things up a little bit. DutyFreeDepot.com has been operating online for over 6 years now. Our website is one of the biggest online cigarette retailers in the world, with dozens of satisfied customers from across the globe. We are one of the very few websites that sell genuine duty-free smokes (and other items) from Western Europe (Switzerland and Spain) unlike many competing websites that sell lower-quality cigarettes from Eastern
Europe. Our company has warehouses across Europe (and a warehouse in the Philippines, to serve our customers from Asia) and we have telemarketing agents worldwide. During the last year, some of the outsourcing telemarketing agents did not follow our strict policies by offering coupons, free gifts and discounts. Those agents were terminated immediately from our company and are no longer work for us.
Nevertheless, DutyFreeDepot did the best it could to satisfy its customers despite the matter. Our aim is to give the best shopping experience and supply our customers the best service in the industry. In any issue or question you may have, always feel free to contact us at 866-417-8369. If you feel that your problem has not been resolved, you may contact me, Michael, personally at: marketing[at]dutyfreedepot[dot]com, and I will do my best to take care of the problem.
Regarding your case, Tonisha P, I have checked the status of your order and have
the statement at hand. You have been fully refunded on June 14th, 2011.
